Title: Got my new tx 200
Post by: grandad on January 15, 2023, 09:30:16 AM
I went to clean the barrel and the pull through would not go through the barrel, so I found out that the rubber bumper on the bottom of the barrel was sticking up into the bore.
So I took a razorblade and cut it down a little and all is fine now.
I have shot some cp hp 7.9 gr through it and the accuracy is good  and I am getting around 900 fps, that seams slow compared to other peoples guns. I have put-out 500 pellets through it so far, still trying other pellets to see what it likes. Steve!

Interesting...
 I broke off the "rubber baby buggy bumper" off my TX200 a while ago and replaced it with an o-ring on the cocking handle.
You made me look. .. sure enough, that is a through hole clean into the barrel!

The bumper may have been sticking up through the SHROUD in front of the muzzle but was not inside the barrel.
The barrel is only 9.5” long.
The bumpers will fall off anyway.
Place an o-ring on the cocking arm if you want too.
